18Watt Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 6 hours ago, ShuttlePilot said: Why are there accounts that once were moderators but now they are just simple users, what happened? Did they violate the rules? Or is that due to inactivity? It's a significant commitment, and it's an unpaid 'volunteer' job. It's not a life-sentence though. As an example, at this point in time I am able to devote a few hours per day to moderation duties. If work or family commitments change and I need to back out of my moderation duties, I am able to do that. My take is, again, it's not a life sentence to be assigned as a moderator. We all have lives, both personal and professional outside of our moderator duties. When life happens, sometimes time commitments have to be adjusted.

DeadJohn Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Can "The Daily Kerbal: Daily updates from the dev team about the Kerbal universe" be buried much further down the page? Anything new that might go there probably belongs in "Announcements" or the KSP 2 threads since the KSP 1 universe isn't changing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, but I didn't ask for that because renaming a subforum might break a lot of links to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlamoVampire Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Im probably gonna draw some eye rolls for this but since ColdJ has asked about per day avg, I will ask: per week? I would ask per month and year but perhaps others will? Teehee 013909282022 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanamonde Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Depends on how much needs to be done. For me it's anywhere from half an hour to 3 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On those days I'm usually available for 3-5 hours. However, the time spent actually doing moderation is much less. Most days there's maybe an hour spent actually moderating anything- y'all are remarkably polite for the most part. But personally, I try to be available at least 3 hours per day, at least 4 days per week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a matter of people putting time into something they care about. Every moderator I ever worked with cares a great deal about this community. In a similar way, some great individuals put their time and energy into making mods, writing stories, creating beautiful artwork to share with others etc. These are all different ways of giving something back to the community. Doing things for others is actually a great way to get joy out of life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the day or Month or Year. As a mod, I'm on the forums most days when I'm on my computer, but occasionally I'll step away for a couple few weeks on a whim just to not get burned out. I try to stay active on the forums if there's a thread that interests me, but usually I'll just lurk. What I miss though, is getting into the Tech support areas as much as I used to, I just don't have the energy to commit that much time. 4 minutes ago, AlamoVampire said: In regards to locked threads, using Dont Click This as an example, I see mods posting in it after it gets locked.

We can post in a thread after it's been locked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
